In this video, we cover about paying attention to paralanguage
Transcript
00:00 Paralanguage is non-verbal communication, such as your tone, pitch, or manner of speaking.
00:06 Basically, it's a fancy way of saying that you need to pay attention to how someone says
00:11 something.
00:12 For example, if someone is answering you in monotone, they're likely unattached to your
00:17 concept and not interested.
00:20 The use of sarcasm is another good example.
00:23 When someone uses sarcasm, what the person means is actually the opposite of what the
00:28 words say.
00:29 So, pay attention to the emphasis they put on words and how they say it.
00:34 It gives you a big clue as to what their true intentions are.
00:37 (upbeat music)
